If the switch is purely Layer 2, it would be difficult to classify

Well, even a Layer 2 switch can classify based on L3 information, most
of today's (and yesterday's) Cat2xxx/3xxx support this. I would recommend looking at the Enterprise QoS solution reference at
www.cisco.com/go/srnd for plenty of examples for various access switch
platforms.

Really... I wasn't aware Layer 2 devices had DiffServ/DSCP awareness.

I stand corrected, then!
